- The subject of Waste Management has been grown to the status of maturity in all developed countries. Every year, new techniques are being developed to recover the energy and recycle the materials. The nations like USA, Australia, Norway and Western Europe are handling their solid wastes in a scientific and hygienic way. However, in most of the developing world, of Africa, Asia and Eastern European Nations, the collection, transportation and disposal of solid waste is still at its lowest ebb. In USA, though the technology for handling of the solid waste is available, the wastes are mostly managed by land filling (70%) and incineration with or without energy recovery. It means a major share of the source is wasted. Only 30-31% of the waste materials are recovered.In contrast to this, in developing countries like India 60–70% of the materials are recovered and reused mostly by the informal sector without application of any art of technology. There is no national level data available on solid waste management in those countries. Often the waste is open burnt or land filled in the low-lying areas. The unscientific way of waste management pose the risk of diseases to humans and also degrade the environment. The toxic smoke containing, furans and dioxins are released after the burning of trash, leading to the rise in carcinogenic trace gases in the atmosphere.
